In fact, since Xiang Yu led people away, Mao Wenlong has been in an extremely tangled situation.

For Xiang Yu and their behavior of fighting privately, Mao Wenlong hated it to the extreme.

But it had already happened, and there was nothing he could do about it.

He could only send a few scouts to watch the situation in the Jurchen camp from afar.

At the same time, he is anxiously waiting for news from the front to see if they will succeed.

It wasn't long before one of the horsemen came running back with a quick horse.

"Report to my lord, Lord Xiang Yu has joined forces with Leader Xue, and has led a large number of cavalry to rush into the Jurchen camp two quarters of an hour ago, and now the Jurchen camp is on fire, and there are shouts of killing everywhere."

The cavalryman said excitedly.

"So their night raid plan was successful."

Hearing this, Mao Wenlong stood up excitedly.

"That's right, their plan worked."

It's done?

Is it really done?

Mao Wenlong couldn't believe it at first, but soon he walked around excitedly, if their night attack plan really succeeded.

Then it will be a great victory, just think of defeating 7,000 enemy troops in one battle.

What a credit that would be.

Thinking of this, Mao Wenlong was extremely excited.

He went out to look at the sky, and found that the sky had already brightened, so he said: "Inform me to go down, immediately order the soldiers and horses, and the official is ready to go out of the city to cooperate with them in chasing and killing the Jurchens." ”

"Yes, my lord."

The family member hurriedly said.

He ordered 200 cavalry and 700 infantry, including some of Lu Yan's men, and after ordering the others to guard the city gate, he drove out of the city in a mighty way.

However, when he left the city, it had been more than half an hour since Xiang Yu and their night attack on the camp.

Mao Wenlong estimated that when they arrived at the Jurchen camp, it was estimated that only the work of cleaning the battlefield would remain.

They had not gone far out of the city, when a horse came at a rapid pace.

"Great victory! Mao-sama! Great victory! ”

The cavalryman shouted as he ran.

"Bring him here."

Hearing this, Mao Wenlong couldn't help but be overjoyed.

The cavalry in front hurriedly got out of the way, and then someone brought the cavalry over.

As soon as the cavalryman saw Mao Wenlong, he hurriedly dismounted and bowed.

"Lord Qiyu, just now the Great Leader Xue and Xiang Yu broke the Jurchens together, killing countless enemies, don't capture thousands of war horses, and countless materials of all kinds. and killed the pseudo-guerrilla Tong Yangxing, and captured the slave chief prince Amin. ”

Especially when the last sentence was spoken, the cavalryman's face was flushed with excitement, and he had a proud expression.

Hearing this, the surrounding sergeants were in an uproar.

How is this possible?

Fought so many Zhangzhang with the Jurchens, let alone capture a slave chief prince alive, and even captured a Jiala Ezhen.

"What do you say? You repeat! ”

Mao Wenlong couldn't believe his ears, and he grabbed the cavalryman's shoulder and said with a look of disbelief.

"Just now, Chief Xue and General Xiang Yu broke through the enemy army, slashed countless enemies, and killed the pseudo-guerrilla Tong Yangxing, and captured the slave chief prince Amin."

The cavalryman said it again.

"Capture the slave chieftain alive...... Amin. ”

Mao Wenlong muttered in his mouth, but his eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Quick, follow me."

With that, he galloped forward with all his might, and did not even want his soldiers.

Those cavalry hurriedly followed, and as for the infantry, who could control those infantry now.

The cavalry rushed towards the Jurchen camp, and in the distance they noticed that smoke was rising from the Jurchen camp.

The movement of these cavalry galloping also alarmed the Xuanjia elite cavalry in the camp, and some of them were soon killed.

Fortunately, Lu Yan stopped them in time, otherwise they might have made a farce of cannibalism.

Mao Wenlong didn't care about these trivial things, and when he saw Lu Yan, he split his head and asked, "I heard that you caught the slave chief prince Amin, is this true?" ”

"That's right, if you want to see him, please come with me."

Lu Yan said with a smile.

Mao Wenlong didn't say anything polite to him, and walked directly to Lu Yanjian's camp.

Seeing this, those Xuanjia elite riders hurriedly stepped out of the way.

Soon Lu Yan took Mao Wenlong to a camp tent that had not been burned, and several Xuanjia elite horsemen were standing outside the camp.

Walking into the camp tent, Amin who was tied up by five flowers appeared in front of him.

At this time, Amin's face was gray, and he still had the same high spirits as when he first came.

A few Iron Eagle Warriors were guarding him, lest he would not think of committing suicide.

"My lord, this is Amin. We have interrogated several captives and have confirmed his identity. ”

Lu Yan said with a smile.

Mao Wenlong looked at Amin like a rare treasure, although he knew that Lu Yan would not lie to him, but he still asked the captive, "Are you the slave chief prince Amin?" ”

Amin raised his head and glanced at Mao Wenlong, and then snorted coldly and said, "If you want to kill, you have to listen." You're right, I'm Shulhazi's son, Hachi's nephew Amin. But I advise you to let me go as soon as possible, or the Great Khan will lead a large army to attack, and you will surely die without a place to bury. ”

Mao Wenlong ignored his threat, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

"What a success! What a success!! ”

Mao Wenlong said a little almost frantically.

What is the capture of Zhenjiang Fort, compared to the defeat of the Jurchen army of 7,000 and the capture of the slave chieftain prince, these are not even fart.

As long as Amin can be captured in Beijing, not only will it cause a sensation in the entire court, but even the entire Ming Dynasty will be shaken by this great achievement.

And he, Mao Wenlong, will also become an upstart in the Ming Dynasty, at least he will be promoted to the next level, and he may be crowned a wife and a son at that time.

Mao Wenlong's mind was racing, and he quickly figured out the consequences of this incident.

"Congratulations, congratulations."

Several of his officers also spoke.

The credit for killing thousands of Jurchens, it is obvious that Mao Wenlong can't eat it alone.

Of course, their subordinates will also be promoted and make a fortune together, and when the time comes, it will be a certainty that everyone will be promoted to the next level.

"You're doing a great job."

Mao Wenlong patted Lu Yan's shoulder with a smile on his face and said.

"The subordinates did not obey the military order, and went out to attack the troops privately, and asked Lord Mao to surrender."

At this time, Lu Yan said modestly.

Hearing this, everyone laughed, but they didn't expect Lu Yan to take the blame at this time.

Mao Wenlong laughed and said, "It turns out that you also know that you are guilty, I thought you no longer had me as a coach in your eyes." ”

Hearing this, Lu Yan's face turned red, if this kind of thing of sending troops without permission is seriously investigated, it will not be too much to cut off his head.

The others laughed, too, but there was kindness in the laughter.

"But as long as you can capture a slave prince for me every time you send troops privately, this official promises not to hold you accountable."

But Mao Wenlong quickly changed his tone and said.

Hearing this, the crowd burst into laughter again.

Lu Yan also smiled wryly, every time he captured a slave chieftain prince, how could this be possible.

"I wonder who captured him?"

Mao Wenlong asked again.

"It was captured by the great leader Xue Rengui."

Lu Yan said.

"What about them?"

"He and General Xiang Yu went out to pursue the enemy."

Lu Yan said.

Mao Wenlong nodded, and then said with a look of regret: "It's a pity, the leader of Xue has helped the official so much, and the official can't talk to him at night, but I didn't expect to still be able to see each other." ”

He paused and continued: "However, this slave chief prince is a very important captive, and it is too unsafe to put him here, so this official will temporarily escort him back to Zhenjiang Fort to take care of it, and this place will be handed over to you for the time being." ”

"Yes, my lord."

Lu Yan said with a smile.

After saying that, Mao Wenlong sent someone to escort Amin back to Zhenjiang Fort, although the other results are also very important, but where can it be compared to Amin's case.

Of course, it was because he didn't know Tong Yangxing's identity, and if he knew who Tong Yangxing's grandson was, he would definitely not think so.

So next, some of the people left behind by Lu Yan and Mao Wenlong began to count the heads and divide the spoils.

Not to mention those heads, there are nearly 2,000 Jurchen heads alone, which is definitely the first major victory since the war between the Ming and Houjin.

And because this night attack was very successful, the Jurchens were caught off guard and left behind a large number of war horses and weapons and armor.

There are more than 3,000 war horses alive alone, and even all the Ming soldiers here have more than enough horses.

Coupled with those countless weapons, armor and food, so much loot is enough to make many people dazzled.

It took them a full day to gather all the loot and heads.

*****

*****

If the night attack on Zhenjiang Fort can be regarded as a shock to the entire Liaodong, then the battle of defeating the Jurchen army can be called a sensation for the entire Ming Dynasty.

In this day when the general army of Liaodong died one after another, and the Ming army was defeated in successive battles, there was even a Ming army that was a lone show, repeatedly defeating the strong with the weak, and defeating the Jurchens with fewer victories and more victories.

This simply shocked the princes of the court, and their team was completely composed of horse thieves, recruits, soldiers, and a small number of family members.

If it weren't for the fact that Amin was quickly escorted to Jingshi by Mao Wenlong, almost everyone would not have dared to believe this fact.

They will only think that Mao Wenlong is killing good and risking merit, you really think that the hundreds of thousands of troops in Liaodong are mud nirvana.

So many of us have been defeated repeatedly in the fight against the Jurchens, and you alone are 200 weak brigades who keep winning more with less, and defeating the strong with the weak.

But when they found out that this thing was true, Mao Wenlong immediately became an upstart in the court.

The princes of the court and the central government almost unanimously agreed that this merit must be rewarded, and that not rewarding it is not enough to reward it.

So Mao Wenlong's position as a staff general was not yet secure, and he was immediately promoted to deputy commander-in-chief.

If it weren't for the fact that Mao Wenlong was really promoted too quickly, many people thought that the reward for a deputy general soldier was too low.

But even if they are, the speed of their promotion is enough to jaw everyone.

From training guerrillas to deputy commanders-in-chief, he has jumped a lot in between. The gap between this is enough for many people to survive for more than ten years or even a lifetime, but Mao Wenlong only took five months.

Of course, the meritorious personnel of Mao Wenlong's performance have also been promoted accordingly.

Lü Yan was promoted from Qianzong to garrison (after breaking Zhenjiang Fort, Mao Wenlong guaranteed him to the imperial court as Qianzong), Xue Rengui was added as a guerrilla general because of his righteous deeds and the capture of Amin, and Xiang Yu was also added as a guerrilla general because of his brave performance in guarding Zhenjiang Fort, coupled with the night attack on the Jurchen camp and many previous achievements.

As for the Sugar Fly, the Flying Guard and the others, they are all guarded by the Dusi.

In addition, there is a reward after the official is added, and at least the money of the first level must be handed down.

However, there are too many heads captured this time, there are more than 4,000 Jurchens alone, and about 5,000 if you go to the Han army.

Such a big reward made it difficult for the imperial court, for no other reason, because the life of the imperial court was really tight, and there was no money in hand.

If the reward is given according to the custom, the first level of silver alone will have to come up with more than 100,000 taels of silver, which makes the imperial court get such a large sum of silver.

In these years, even the imperial court has no surplus food.

So after scraping together, it was decided to send 20,000 taels of silver for emergency purposes to calm the grievances of the soldiers, and various materials were allocated first.

Of course, as for how many of the 20,000 taels can be sent to the soldiers, although all the princes of the court and the central government understand it in their hearts, they all understand it and are confused, and they never face the emperor in front of this matter.

In addition, Mao Wenlong's performance is so bright, then the pressure on Guangning is very great.

Influenced by the optimism of the war, some ministers who were not familiar with the war began to make nonsense again.

Thinking that Wang Huazhen and Xiong Tingbi were really afraid of the enemy, Mao Wenlong was able to defeat the 7,000 Jurchen army with a weak brigade of less than 3,000.

Wang Huazhen and Xiong Tingbi should at least win the same number of Jurchens, not to mention that they should win more with less and stronger with the weak.

Wang Huazhen's popularity is good, and there are many good things for the princes in the court, and Mao Wenlong was also sent by him, at least one of the merits for the country is still there.

Xiong Tingbi is much more miserable, he has a lot of enemies in the court, and with one force, he was criticized by the ministers of the DPRK and the central government for being incomplete.

In particular, Zhang Heming, the secretary of the military department, jumped up and down, constantly attacking Xiong Tingbi, believing that he was afraid of the enemy and did not dare to fight, and that he should be removed from his post as an economic strategy in Liaodong and sent him to prison.

Affected by this, the main battle between the DPRK and China flourished for a while.

Of course, if Lu Yan knew about this situation, he would definitely be dumbfounded, he probably couldn't have imagined that the ministers of the court and the central government were so ignorant of the war and so optimistic.

Was it so easy for the Jurchens to win with tens of thousands of troops?
